The speed of Throat-Cutter Neil became even faster, completely surpassing the vines protruding from the ground.

So, the next moment, the blade was already closing in on Kaster.

Kaster did not dodge but instead, a layer of wooden armor quickly covered his entire body.

Although Throat-Cutter Neil was fast enough, he could only leave marks on that wooden armor rather than completely cut through it.

Meanwhile, Vasini had to prevent Throat-Cutter Neil from being entangled.

The battle was deadlocked.

To be more precise, Kaster was too strong, making it hard to find a breakthrough.

Vasini, while controlling Throat-Cutter Neil, also had to avoid vines that could appear from anywhere, even land traps.

This Kaster possessed an extremely strong ability to control plants and land.

If not for the divine power filling his body and enhancing Vasini's speed and strength more than doubled, he should have already been dead by now.

He already had thoughts of retreating in his heart.

So he directly looked towards Old Kani who was crawling in darkness.

Old Kani had secretly hidden in the shadows after the battle broke out; such an old fox who had lived for decades still had his own survival wisdom.

Unfortunately...

His godson would not forget him.

So, while he was silently congratulating himself for hiding quickly, a blade had already slashed across his throat.

He did not have time to react before dying.

And Vasini showed no slightest emotion fluctuation; when Old Kani proposed to meet tonight, he was already a dead man in Vasini's mind.

After killing Old Kani, Vasini didn't stay at all and directly charged towards the window.

But Kaster had already anticipated his intentions, tilting his head and staring at him: "Want to escape?"

He cannot be allowed to escape.

Such delicious food.

Instantly, a wall of vines had risen, fully encircling the window.

Vasini turned to find another exit, only to discover vines following him closely.

Kaster was chasing him like a cat teasing a mouse.

No way out?

Vasini stopped, gripping the continuously spinning blade.

Actually, Throat-Cutter Neil was merely an ordinary-looking razor.

But once infused with divine power, it could cut through all thorns.

"Not running away anymore?"

With a casual wave, Kaster grew a vine in his hand that was pale and resembled human bones.

It's not that he wasn't escaping.

But Vasini chose to believe in divine power, just as he did when he assassinated Luca; the divine would help him.

"Then become my food."

Kaster directly rolled the bone-like vine towards Vasini.

Vasini stared at the vine, with only one thought in his heart.

Cut it off.

The next moment, Throat-Cutter Neil in his hand began to tremble uncontrollably.

Then, it transformed once more into a streak of black light, shooting out rapidly.

With a "buzzing" sound.

The originally tough vine was instantly sliced open.

It didn't stop; it continued forward, aiming directly at Kaster's brow.

Kaster sensed something was amiss; he felt the power accompanying Throat-Cutter Neil was even stronger this time.

This did not make him afraid, but instead, more excited.

Because it meant the food would be more delicious.

Then he bent down, the next second, six more robust vines pierced out from his back, carrying flesh and blood, as if becoming part of his body.

Those six flesh-and-blood vines moved simultaneously from six different directions to besiege Throat-Cutter Neil.

The front two couldn't withstand it and were instantly cut apart.

Until the fourth one, that fierce power was finally blocked, and then the remaining two vines tightly entangled Throat-Cutter Neil.

"Caught you, little darling."

Kaster spoke, but his eyes were fixed on Vasini not far away.

Without Throat-Cutter Neil, Vasini was like meat on a chopping board.

Still, Vasini refused to give up; he kept rallying his spirit, fervently praying to the great Lord.

"Great Lord, please bestow your might and let all this desecration and offense fade into nothingness!"

This time, he recited loudly.

"A god? Interesting, what kind of god might yours be?"

Kaster showed complete disregard, seemingly not believing in any god, and urged more vines to besiege Vasini.

Vasini's gaze remained steadfast, terrifyingly devout.

"Blasphemer, deserve a thousand deaths!"

He spoke again.

And in that instant, the power on Throat-Cutter Neil erupted simultaneously.

This power surged fiercely like an ocean.

Directly rushing towards Kaster.

While Kaster was just at the moment of locking eyes with Vasini.

He saw the ocean right there.

The surging ocean made him lose focus, just like Luca from earlier.

Even the flesh-and-blood vines entwined with Throat-Cutter Neil lost power; Vasini had been waiting for this moment, he immediately maneuvered the blade, once more aiming at Kaster's brow.

The blade pierced through.

Even the tough wooden armor couldn't block it.

Just as Vasini was about to take a breath, Kaster, who should have been completely dead, raised his head again.

He let out a deep growl: "Interesting... You can actually hurt me. You... I'll eat your bones clean!"

He raised his hand again to summon vines, but perhaps because of the brow being penetrated just now, his movements were evidently much slower.

Vasini really wanted to strike again, but he was exhausted and, more importantly, his connection to the divine seemed to have weakened.

So he could only seize this chance to rush towards the window once more.

Before Kaster could fully recover, he broke through the vines on the window and escaped.

Meanwhile, far at the South District boundary, Ethan.

He was already extremely pale.

He was nearly exhausted.

This time, Vasini was too ruthless, really risking everything to borrow his power.

Luckily Vasini managed to escape in the end, otherwise, Ethan would have suffered greatly.

"Let's head back."

Ethan clutched his head, feeling quite pained.

Anya looked at him worriedly, quickly turned the car around.

Ethan leaned against the car, took deep breaths, apart from silently cursing Vasini for underestimating depth, he didn't anticipate the opponent being so strong this time.

That so-called eternal entity was exceptionally strong.

Not only possessed tremendous defense, its life force was almost monstrous.

Even having its head penetrated by Throat-Cutter Neil, it still managed to survive.

This person was quite a handful, it wasn't something that could be dealt with merely by lending power to Vasini.

As he hurried back in the car, Ethan finally regained quite a bit, turning his head to see Sofia's peacefully sleeping profile.

Serene and beautiful.
